File Number: 18-474 parking spaces for the department, electrical issues, and an absence of a proper physical training facility. The report went on to state that it did not appear feasible financially, structurally or space-wise to add the necessary office space and parking to the existing SLPD facility, and it provided three scenarios for a brand new SLPD building ranging from $59.6 million to $70.5 million in 2009 dollars. The City did not proceed with those recommendations due to lack of project funding. The South Office Building previously housed the Recreation and Human Services Department, but they have vacated the space and relocated staff to City Hall, the Marina Community Center and Senior Community Center over the past few years. In 2013, Indigo/Hammond & Playle Architects was hired to provide space planning services to allow the SLPD to expand to the South Office Building to mitigate some of the overcrowding noted in the 2009 Needs Assessment report. Only non-Essential Services staff (i.e. excluding sworn officers) were slated to be relocated to the South Office Building to prevent the need for costly structural upgrades such that the building will meet the standards for an Essential Services Building. Indigo developed two design concepts, since it was unknown the level of funding to be allocated towards construction. The first conceptual plan addressed the top five deficiencies noted in the 2009 Needs Assessment, namely: -Dispatch Center -Traffic Division -Electrical System and Computer Server -Investigations -Physical Training Space The second design concept did not include improvements for the Investigations Division or create a new physical training space. Both concepts were presented before City Council on July 28, 2014, and the first design concept was preferred and later funded for design and construction. In 2016, Indigo/Hammond & Playle Architects was hired again to help develop construction-ready plans, specifications and estimates based on the conceptual documents that they previously prepared. At the Public Safety Building, approximately two-thirds of the first floor (3,776 square feet) will be remodeled. The scope of work includes expanding the dispatch center, enlarging the server room, creation of a new Dispatch breakroom, a new Lieutenants locker room, and offices for managers, supervisors and Lieutenants. Excluding contingencies, the construction cost is roughly $506 per square foot for the Public Safety Building. Improvements at the South Offices include a new public lobby with a children’s alcove. The existing lobby at the Public Safety Building will no longer be used as such after the completion of this project. Other improvements include new office space for the Records Division, Traffic Division, Code Compliance, and volunteers. There will be two quiet rooms for officers to rest after long shifts. The scope of work also includes a new physical training room with lockers and showers to be open to all City staff, an interview room, Livescan fingerprinting room, breakroom, conference room, restrooms, and storage rooms. The theater space formerly used by the California Conservatory Theater will be turned into a community meeting room with attached storage and food preparation areas to help make up for the fact that the South Office Conference Room will no longer be available. 9,439 square feet of the South Office Building will receive Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 10/30/2018
